New Star Wars Lego special @ Toysrus, Vaughan Mills

Post by h22chen » Tue Apr 17, 2012 10:20 am

This morning I was at the Toysrus at Vaughan Mills in Ontario, hoping to see if there are any left over Snow Trooper packs. The friendly employee there told me they were sold out, but they just had new Star Wars Lego specials that was just put on today (Tuesday April 17), just before the store opens at 10am.

I saw 3 more star wars sets on special! And grabbed Emperor Palpatine's shuttle for my friend.

Battle of Genosis is at $20.87 used to be at $49.99
Emperor Palpatine's shuttle is at $31.87 where it used to be at $79.99
General Grevious' fighter is also at $31.87 where it used to be at $69.99

I'm not sure for how long (I didn't check for the dates sorry, too excited) and I am not sure if it is for all Toysrus stores.

^ wow, thanks for sharing I was so excited I packed up the family and drove the 20 min tonight. But half way there my wife asked if all toys r us had this sale (since there is one closer). I said I have no idea, LOL
About 20 battles left, 1 shuttle, and about 6 grevious when I left at close. There are about three different displays around so look around.
Question: is this tru sale or just a Vaughn mills sale? If the later, is that common?

They're also on sale at toysrus.ca, with the curious exception of Geonosis which was regular price (at least when I checked).

Its happening at the Barrie Ontario location too. Of course, all they have left now are a few of the Battle of Geonosis. Sold out of the Shuttle, Grevious and all the other sets that are 50% off.

Is there any friendly Canadians that would pick these up for me and ship to the US? I would gladly pay up front via PayPal. Our Toys R Us stores here are nowhere near that generous in their sales. :P

Why not simply just check out your local Walmart, Kmart, or Target on their clearances? Since we canadians always envy states clearance sale from those 3 retailers.

I've checked all three of those and none of them has any sales at all right now. I wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers by asking. If we had a sale and i was able to help someone up there i would gladly do so.

At the TRU I visited there was a correction notice for this week's flyer which basically said that these sets are substitutes for Cad Bane's Speeder and Republic Swamp Speeder; I guess they got a lot of complaints due to not having those in? According to the notice, Rebel Trooper BP should also be on sale for the same price as the Snowtrooper BP (not that I saw any).

I also saw tons of 10215 Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter; TRU is having a lot of trouble of moving these and I anticipate these will go for cheap before the end of 2012 (already at $90, compared to $130 MSRP). I've got pics of both if anybody wants to see them.

The Burnaby store only has Emperor Palpatine's Shuttle instock. They told me to try the slower stores like Surrey and Richmond for the Battle of Geonosis set. =/

Anyone been to the Vancouver store and how's the selection? I hope the sale is good even after today as I'll probably dropby another Toys R Us tommorow.

I checked my local TRU and at first glance none of these sets were on sale. As a lark I carried a Palpatine's shuttle and a General Grevious' fighter over to a price scanner and lo and behold they were both scanning at $31.87!!!

Since there was no indication whatsoever that these were on clearance there were still plenty of each. Thanks for the heads up on this!

All gone at North Vancouver, B.C. Try to pick up a box of Battle of Genosis at late Thursday afternoon, but no luck.

Could anyone at Coquitlam pick up a box of Battle of Genosis for me, please?

I had a feeling that news for lego deal in Vancouver has been spread out much faster than before.

Scanned a Palp Shuttle and it came out 79.99 at local TRU and no Bane/Swamp Speeder
